We recorded this shortly after the 2024 US election results but, as it took some time to edit, we decided to post on inauguration day (reposted here from the original feed).

While folks are probably familiar with general highlights of his story, many of the finer details may be surprising. After consuming the entirety of his legend, it’s hard to call it anything else but tragic.
